After getting COVID, Spencer can't stop telling the truth.
Desperate to be 'fixed,' he seeks professional help from a therapist. Instead, that journey leads him to reveal every secret he swore to keep buried forever; including his attraction to older (much older) men.
Part therapy session, part confession booth, part accidental stand-up. DADDY ISSUES is a bold solo show where the audience becomes Spencer's therapist in real time, weaving together identity, family, and the question: What happens when the stories we tell ourselves stop protecting us?
Fresh off sold-out, critically acclaimed runs at Hollywood Fringe and Edinburgh Fringe 2026, Waldner now brings DADDY ISSUES to venues worldwide.
